HMAS BRISBANE rugby players, wbo returned home late last week to thegulded mlssDe destroyer, have nothlog but pratse for the facUlties and hospilaUtythey encountered at the Bombay Gymkhana Club.

From the dust bowls --.----....--experienced duringtheir lengthy overseasdeployment, the Aus­sies were impressedwith the exceptionalgreen lush playingfields of Bombay.

BRISBANE set up a 1%-3lead at the brf'ak but ran Olie!"

their opponents in the secondhaU to wiD 46-3.

Our correspondent reportsthat spectators saw a firsthalf which featured fairlytight defence from both""",.

This reflected coach MaxT'urner's instructions that vic·tory was certain if tackleswere low and enthusiasm­Toward the end of the firsthalf a promising trendemerged with the heaviersbip's pack establishing

~ themsel\'es and enabl1ng thepacb to put together somevery constructi\'e ptay,
